Sydney knew that Clarice followed her at a distance. It didn't matter, but Sydney felt annoyed by Clarice's defensive gaze as if Sydney was going to do something bad.
Anyway, she was curious about why Clarice asked her to leave the restaurant.
'Why does Clarice ask me to leave here?'
She didn't ask Clarice for the reason because she knew that Clarice wouldn't answer.
'If I want to know the reason, I have to find it out by myself.'
Thinking that, she paused and tilted her head to look at Clarice, who followed behind her.
Seeing that Sydney stopped, Clarice tensed and stopped.
Sydney sneered in her heart.
'Now that she is trailing me, she needs to do it secretly at least.
'However, she stops as soon as I stop. It's too obvious.'
Sydney compressed her red lips. She didn't expose Clarice but continued to walk forward.
Soon, Sydney arrived at her private room. She pulled open the door and walked in.
Clarice glanced at Sydney's private room and the Maddens' private room. Only then did Clarice breathe a sigh of relief.
'It's lucky that Mom and Dad haven't walked out of their private room.
'As long as they won't meet Sydney here, I don't need to be worried.'
Thinking that, Clarice exhaled lightly and relaxed finally. She withdrew her gaze and walked towards the Maddens' private room.
'Although Mom and Dad haven't met Sydney, it doesn't mean that they won't meet her.
'After, they're all in the restaurant.
'I have to persuade Mom and Dad to leave here as soon as possible in case they meet each other.'
Clarice put her hand on the knob, turned it slightly, pushed against the door and walked in.
As soon as she walked in, the door of Sydney's private room was opened slightly.
Sydney's face showed up from the crack. She was staring at the door of Clarice's private room, poker-faced.
She felt curious when Clarice asked her to leave the restaurant, and she became more curious when Clarice tailed her and watched her move.
'Is it because there is something in the restaurant that she doesn't want me to see? Thus, she asked me to leave the restaurant and even tailed me along the way in case I saw it.
'When I found that she was trailing me, I pretended not to notice it. I walked into my private room and opened the door slightly to observe her. From her behaviors, I'm sure that I guessed right.
'After I walked into my private room, she obviously breathed a sigh of relief.
'It was because I didn't see the thing that she cared about.
'Then her expression changed again when she stared at the diagonally opposite private room.
'I don't know how to describe the change in her expression, but my intuition tells me that the thing that she doesn't want me to see is in that private room.
'Then what is in that private room?'
Sydney looked down and was lost in thought.
Julien had come up behind Sydney. Suddenly, he lowered his head and asked, "What has happened? What are you looking at?"
Hearing his voice, she came to her senses, closed the door and turned around. Only then did she reply, "Clarice."
"Clarice?" As soon as he heard the name, his expression changed slightly, and his gaze became strange.
